Professor Daniel Czitrom was a featured on-camera commentator in a new
American Experience documentary, The Great
Transatlantic Cable, that premiered on PBS Monday, April 11. The show
documents an amazing story: the laying of the first Transatlantic telegraph
cable in 1858—the first step toward wiring the world for modern
communications media. More about the show is available at www.pbs.org/wgbh/amex/cable. |
